Morecambe

We came to Morecambe because Pauline thought it sounded cool and it certainly is – the cold wind today could take your face off quite easily. We have a friend in Preston from the pharmacy school days, Gordon, who came up here to meet us so that was nice.

I never knew until yesterday that Eric Morecambe was born in Morecambe and his real name was Eric Bartholemew
Hence this pub named after him.
We are staying at the Midland Hotel which is an iconic art deco hotel built in the ’30s.
The decor is unusual!
View from the hotel.
Me and Pauline with the great man

Its a dog friendly hotel and they have these treats at the bar but for good dogs only of course.
R.I.P. Eric Morecambe.
